Default Tennis star to try professional poker
There doesn't appear to be any articles online, but I heard on Sportscentre last night that former pro tennis player Evgeni Kafelnikov is apparently retiring from tennis and is going to try his hand at poker. He said that at 30 years of age it has become too difficult to defeat the young players on the WTA. Minor celebrity but still a nice addition to the Pro Poker world.
